  1. Liuzhou, Thank you.

    I was really happy with the crust. I used the Saturday White Bread recipe from Flour Water Salt Yeast, but increasing the water from 720g to 820g.

    Ann -- those pizzas are absolutely beautiful - if you don't mind my asking -- what did you use to bake them? Based on the charring, I would assume some sort of outdoor oven at high temp...Really, really beautiful.

    Unpopular Poet,Thank you. I followed the instructions on baking pizza from the cookbook - Flour Water Salt Yeast. Instead of my stone being near the bottom of the oven, I moved it to the top. Preheated to 550°F for an hour, and then just before sliding the pizza on to the stone, I turned on the broiler for five minutes to boost the surface temperature. Switched back to 550°F, slide in the pizza and baked for five minutes. Turned the oven to broil and baked another two minutes. I wish I had known about this method before. My favourite pizzeria is in Victoria and the pizzas are baked in a wood burning oven. Last night's pizzas were very close, in looks and in taste. All they were missing was that wonderful wood oven flavour.

  2. Robirdstx, you elevated the dish. The pork looks beautiful on the bed of peas.

    I baked a couple of pizzas for dinner.

  8. Ann - yes please! Thanks, very much looking forward.

    Ann -- could you send me that recipe as well -- I have been aching to make this for some time and haven't found a recipe to use -- I really appreciate it!

    Thanks

    Dan

    Done!

  9. Ann_T - blanquette de veau, something I always plan to make and never end up making. Looks delicious.

    What recipe do you use

    Patrick, I use a recipe that I've had for more than 25 years. It was a recipe from a newspaper - The Toronto Star. I'll be happy to send it to you, if you would like.

  10. Paul, Love the idea of meatballs and mashed potatoes - Comfort food.
